Rhyme Asylum have been around for a long time battling in UK circuits and producing head banging classics such as their last release 'State Of Lunacy' and on the 23rd of April 2010 they released their next instalment: Solitary Confinement.
The album begins with a track titled the same as the album name which features high quality production and nothing but a flow of constant and relentless and clever punchlines that us fans have longed for, not to mention their sick wordplay.
The album features a track from the well known Crooked-I (also a member of Slaughterhouse) titled 'Event Horizon' which is a classic dose of the head bangers R.A constantly release.
- I’m on the balcony practising ancient alchemy
- Vest on the chest in case they try to Martin or Malcolm me
Not only does the group yet again produce some of the best work coming from the Underground with their aggressive style, they also have a track which features immense story telling titled 'Broken Window'. The track however is not a pretty story, the track goes into describe past time events of the victims of Donald Ewen Cameron and the MK Ultra Experiments.
The album also features some great deep and uplifting tracks such as 'I Know' and if this doesn't suffice, I can guarantee the rest of the album will, not to even mention their other overseas feature on the album - Ill Bill.
This Is Where by Rhyme Asylum
This Is Where Lyrics
- (Hoping for something better)
- (Hoping for something better)
- I’m from where we have little respect for the law
- And even less for rich people that pretend to be poor
- Cold blooded hold grudges settle our scores
- Live low budget commit benefit fraud
- No justice, I perish the thought
- Fuck weapons of war, chose the pen instead of the sword
- Try and relate, we’re forced to acquire a taste
- For food past expiry dates
- (Who’s deciding my fate?) Will I rise to where messiah awaits?
- Or plunge into hell’s fiery lakes
- They fight to the death, stay bad to the bone
- Turn the price on your head to a tag on your toe
- Live and direct, never watered down
- I’m living life on the edge ‘till someone talks me down
- Grew up on the wrong side of the tracks
- Stuck in London’s underbelly fighting for scraps
- This is where we live, this is where we die
- This is where we laugh, this is where we cry, (Hoping for something better)
- This is where we dream, this is where work
- This is where we bleed, this is where we hurt, (So let's come together)
- A place where silent nights are nonexistent
- Life of crime violent fights and constant killings
- Making right and wrong decisions
- If it’s a free country, why do I feel trapped by the cost of living?
- I'm between a nine to five and writing rhymes
- You gotta take what you want or get what you're given [So true]
- A loss of vision from things shining bright
- Is what your blinded by [Stop] and listen
- Cos everything that glitters ain’t gold
- And ain’t no turning back coz life is like a one way road
- We’re seen differently through the eye of big brother
- Though we all bleed red despite the skin colour
- I feel like I'm fucked 'till my times up
- Cos reality bites and life sucks
- Blood, we’re in a trap and gonna get the fuck out somehow
- Ask my boy Keedo - he know
- This is where we live, this is where we die
- This is where we laugh, this is where we cry, (Hoping for something better)
- This is where we dream, this is where work
- This is where we bleed, this is where we hurt, (So let's come together)
- This is London where the devil never calls in advance
- Life’s a journey - I’m just walking the path
- Growing up I learned some big lessons
- With weapons lives come to swift ends in split seconds
- Best believe, we ain't playing happy families
- At times my yard’s descended into savage anarchy
- Most lack morality
- Money ain’t the root of all evil its people's selfish rationality
- One love to my brothers in arms
- And those struggling past on government grants
- We're all exactly the same
- We battle in vain like blood cells fighting off cancerous plague
- Rogues roaming on road holding loaded revolvers
- So I got my eyes open looking over my shoulder
- Morals dissolve in the crack smoke
- This is London - where blood runs colder than cash flow
- This is where we live, this is where we die
- This is where we laugh, this is where we cry, (Hoping for something better)
- This is where we dream, this is where work
- This is where we bleed, this is where we hurt, (So let's come together)
